Special Section film review at Cannes portrays nightmare of collaboration
The piece argues Costa-Gavras’s Special Section tightens melodrama to lampoon the Nazi Vichy era with Jorge Semprun’s script. It critiques the director’s flair for emotion as masking political issues while noting a rapid cast and heavy spectacle that can hinder clarity and impact. It cites the 1943 Paris killing of German naval officer Jakob Gerner and Vichy’s hostage law to empower special sections.

Letters Home by Sylvia Plath review walls off myth
A Harper & Row edition gathers Sylvia Plath letters from 1950 to 1963 edited by Aurelia Schober Plath. The reviewer notes it dispels the myth of the sacrificial poet, showing a lively, intimate daughter who writes home weekly, yet concedes that some letters grow tedious as they focus on her inner preoccupations rather than broad events.
